African Safari Guide Part1

July
to November
A classical time to start your adventure in the wilds
of East Africa. The skies have cleared to make way
for abundant sunshine, and the rains are virtually
non-existent meaning that once again, the animals
must stay close to shrinking water sources.
Visitor numbers hit their peak at the parks in
August, and guests can expect high season prices
when it comes to camps and lodgings.
The Great Migration turns once more to head back
to the Masai Mara Game Park. Crossing the Grumeti
Reserves and the Mara River is a tense time; yellow
eyed crocodiles wait in the depths to snap as the
wildebeest and zebra plough into the dangerous
waters.
Game viewing across these months are unrivalled
and for those gazing longingly at Kilimanjaro,
September is sublime. The coast of Zanzibar is also
spectacular come September, when the humidity
has dispersed with the rains and the breeze is bright
and beautiful.
